This hard swinging, up tempo arrangement is written in the style of the Count Basie Orchestra. Â It starts out small with a Piano solo and builds throughout with additional solos in the Trumpet, Tenor Sax, and Trombone. The chart features simple unisons and 4-way closed textures and reads straight down easily with plenty of challenging ensemble passages throughout. Â There's a lot of sectional writing and moments when the brass and woodwinds oppose one another. Â After a temporary modulation to a new key for the Trombone solo, the piece returns to the original, customary key of Eb Major. Â Following the solos, the chart climaxes on a big, tutti shout chorus exchange with the drums and a final big chord. Â This arrangement works great at the end a set or concert program or even as an opener.
Trumpet Range - Db6
Trombone Range - A4
The YT Link track is performed by NYC based big band John Yao and His 17-piece Instrument.
